One-way vision film is perforated self-adhesive vinyl, printed on its outer face and black behind, that shows a full-colour image to people outside while letting those inside see out through the holes.
Good reasons to look at one-way vision film in Bedford
- A Bedford unit with tall glazing can carry one large image across several panes, if the artwork is planned around the frames.
- Takeaways in Bedford that trade after dark should plan for the night-time effect and may need blinds as well.
- Trades vans parked at jobs around Bedford turn the rear window into advertising, with the driver using two exterior mirrors.

Rules for window and glass graphics in Bedford
Two sets of rules can touch glass graphics in England. The first is advertisement control: lettering and graphics on the inside of a shop window are often outside it or allowed, but councils differ, and conservation areas and listed shopfronts can bring restrictions on large graphics. The second is safety. Approved Document K points to manifestation bands at 850–1000 mm and 1400–1600 mm from the floor, and in workplaces regulation 14 of the 1992 Workplace Regulations requires glazing to be marked where needed. We take both into account when we set out the proof, and we check with the council where the building or street calls for it.
